Bail arm won't lock open or closed


Recommended Posts

Took the grandad out for night fish last night...ended early in a huff with a monumental birds nest. It seems the bail arm on my JW Integra Gold II didn't snap shut but the old fella didn't realise n just kept winding. Now upon further inspection the bail arm won't lock open or closed or snap closed when winding. When I open the bail arm, it just has this wishy-washy feel to it, doesn't have that solid flicking motion. Takin it apart but not sure what to do with the spring or the other S-shaped bar that has one end sticking in towards the spool n the othe end sticking out next to the spring bar. Any ideas, before I speak to JW?

I had a similar experience with my Twin Power. I tried to fix it and in the end took it to my tackle store for a look. He fixed it in a few minutes for free.

You know that if you hook a big one gear failure is heart breaking.
